Do you fear criticism？If you do, you may want to avoid it.But there will always be those who criticize.Too much or too little, they will never be satisfied.Sometimes, even your friends get in on the action.But they only have your best interests at heart, of course.
There is a way to avoid criticism, of course.Hide from the critics.Do nothing to cause them to notice you.Don't do anything.Don't say anything.Don't be anything that might cause them to criticize you.But that just doesn't sound like much of a life, does it?
We_can_work_on_getting_a_tougher_skin,_too.Learn to accept that others have their own opinions, and occasionally speak them out loud.That's their right.But you don't have to listen to them, nor do you have to give them any credence (信任)．They talk, but you pay no attention.Pretty simple.
Learning to ignore criticism is tough, but necessary.If you don't learn how, you will spend the rest of your life moving away from doing or saying or being anything that gets you criticized.You would be a ship sailing away from every right direction.Will you ever get to your destination like that?
Also, not all criticism is bad.Some criticism may benefit you.You should calm down and think about whether the criticism is right about you.If it's right, then try to change yourself.When you improve yourself, you can stop the criticism.
You may not like others' criticism.However, you should keep in mind that others may not like your criticism either.So be careful about how you criticize others.There is being mean, and there is being helpful.If you want to criticize someone in order to help, then do it in the right way.There is a difference between blunt (直率的) and mean, so learn it well.
We all have our ideas and opinions.Please take the time to consider how others might take yours and how you want to respond to theirs.
